Reflection
The technology is a great idea for students to publish their work. However I found it very challenging, so I believe that it would be a great project to do with the assistance of the technology specialist at the school. I believe that students would enjoy the project and would be excited about publishing their own work in this way. This media would allow them to share it with other classes in the school. I enjoyed the project, and believe it would keep students engaged in learning as they create their narrative fractured fairytales.
